So Much Candy Slot
The So Many and So Much series of slots by Microgaming has really brought the much-needed carelessness quotient back to the world of online slots – otherwise ruled by graphic-heavy, memory-guzzling giant games – in the last couple of years.
So Much Candy is an instrumental part of this series, and one that is by far the most popular one compared to sister games such as So Many Monsters. Coming in an era when candy-based smartphone games are all the rage, it is not at all surprising that this particular slot tops the chart in all Microgaming penny slots.
A sweet-as-a-candy (uh-huh) theme provides players a great level field to take their luck head on in a syrupy gameplay stuffed with possible combinations of even sweeter proportions.
That’s a lot of sugar for now, we guess!
If It Looks Good, It Probably Tastes Good, Too!
That’s what we’ve always believed in and that tenet of palate holds pretty steady and firm when it comes to So Much Candy slot. A candy jar filled with the most delectable looking candies you can ever picture in your head will spill its contents to adorn the chaotic reels that you will be spinning. These candies will play the role of the regular symbols and will decide how much of their sweetness you are lucky enough to actually taste.
Standard Microgaming gameplay of 5x3 reels and 25 paylines that can be found across the whole So Many & So Much slot series makes it quite easy even for inexperienced players to wield their hand at the activator. Even though the distribution of coins in a weighted manner can just get big on them, they can still try the old and wise formula of fare stakes on every horse!
And It Looks SO GOOD!
The most striking feature of So Much Candy is its ability to wow you with its uber-cool visuals, right from the launch screen. Keeping in line with the overall concept of the series, the neat and clean, minimalist interface makes it very easy for players to engage.
Clutter free arrangement of menu icons and the gameplay screen itself also ensure that you are not constantly distracted by annoying ads or pop-up windows.
Developed on a solid HTML5 base, So Much Candy is quick to load and fast to run even on your smartphones – making the need for heavy Flash support obsolete.
Symbols You Will Find Irresistible
The regular symbols used in this slot are all excellently designed and brightly coloured varieties of candy that may or may not exist in real life.
To see these candies whirl away along with the reels creating a sort of spiral effect is a sight to behold. Its eerie hypnotic impact is a major reason why you won’t have to use the autoplay mode available for you from the game menu.
Various combinations of regular symbols, from left to right only, will unlock a number of deals for you, paying out in proportions mentioned in the guide-book present at the home screen at all times.
Splitting It Up
A major plus, from the players’ point of view, is the option of splitting regular symbols in two. This allows for more combinations to be explored and struck, simply meaning that in the same number of slots, you will have a better chance of making every spin count.
Sugary Wilds & Syrupy Scatters
The lone wild symbol for this slot is – in line with the Microgaming tradition – the logo of So Much Candy. It, if and when appears, can help you move your regular symbols here and there to create better paying combos. The wild, however, cannot sub for a scatter – a Candy Canon, in this case!
With unanimous rise, we confirm that there couldn’t be a better scatter for this slot than the Candy Canon. This Canon of Sweet can appear on all the reels without exceptions. A minimum of 3 in a row will unlock the ‘Candy Bonus’ feature. Here, you will be presented a vault of candies. Once you pick any one of these candies, you will be assigned free spins corresponding to that particular pick. Candy Bonus round assuredly wins 40 or fewer free spins for you!
What We Think
So Much Candy is a slot that will present you with neither the highest margins nor the highest multipliers. What it can offer, however, is an hour or two of unadulterated entertainment – a commodity that has become quite a rare stock these days.
So, the best way to extract the most out of this slot would be to take it easy, fly low, enjoy the gameplay, pocket any winnings you get a hold of – and well, scoot!
